  • doot dee doo, half hour to dinner, I guess I'll pop on to Lusty for a bit.

    *idle idle*

    Oh hey, dinner's ready, perfect timing, I wasn't doing anything anyw-


    An echoing voice utters, "Let us speak in My fulcrux,…
  • I've been watching some classic comedies recently. It Happened One Night with Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert; The Philadelphia Story with Cary Grant, Jimmy Stewart and Katherine Hepburn; My Man Godfrey with William Powell and Carole Lombard; and …
  • One thing I love about being a mancer is free pets. My phoenix just grew up.

    A fiery purple phoenix perches here, her fiery plumage illuminating the area with golden sparks.

    Shifting and flickering, the air surrounding the phoe…
  • I really wanted Stratas to get demi through a Harbinger guild rite. I had plans and -everything-.

    And right about that time we hit one of those periods where our GM wasn't around much and our population was too inconsistent to ever hope f…
  • By my count, there were six types of nightmares in the Dame Maeve thing. Here's five of them:

    Naught but darkness forms this dreadful silhouette of knight and steed, shape defined solely by the silver light which frames her. Upon her shou…
  • Reaching a steady hand toward the spinning brand, Queen Maeve of the Fae claims the effigy of the Weeping Amaranth and holds it in her palm. She turns it in her hands, a Queen's dispassionate expression in her gaze, and then whispers, "It's so small…
  • The one time I've been mentioned in an events post was for singing naughty songs to Adalgiso when he first showed up. My claim to fame.
  • I'm terrible at RP at the best of times, but at 3:30 am, when I'm trying to finish one last thing and go to bed, I'm just not going to bring my A game.

    I'm not even really going to try.

  • They still can't join the org cooking cartel, though, right? Just private ones.

    I kinda wish there was some sort of system for org cartels, like library cards, where the TM could give temporary and revocable use of designs to non-members …
  • I find it mildly amusing that I left Gaudiguch about the same time as @Eritheyl, returned the exact same day as him, and apparently have reached largely the same …
  • It's Christmas, and this means it's time for Christmas movies!

    Here's my list this year:

    Die Hard
  • a twisting Ebonglom Wyrdling lamp

    Pitch black coils of hand-blown glass ellipse the base of what appears to be an oil lamp, their still-life slither made three-dimensional by literally hundreds of jaggedly fashioned scales. The base of th…
  • I don't suppose we could get descriptions of the rest of the Higher Gods in here? I've only been able to see Aelish and Sciomore so far

    Here's Luella, Lady of Flowers:

    She is a radiant immortal and is breathtaking to behold, th…
  • Isn't Mt. Zoaka the only place to get ember lizards to make lumps of resin for Sako? Epics nothing, how do you expect him to keep entertained while driving in circles for eternity if he doesn't have some good stuff to smoke? Talk about ruining fun.<…
  • Right now I'm all for Serane. Everlasting Beauty is pretty much all that Stratas has ever wanted in a Divine.

    As for the rest -
     Glomdoring - Manteekan
     Gaudiguch - still Mysrai

  • Something mentioned a couple of times here is that a lot of the guilds don't just have player and admin bolstered internal lore which we're all sad about losing, but a lot have a great deal of actual historical importance. In a way, it wouldn't make…

  • (Quote) Bard guilds came into being in 159 CE.
  • Harbs have had the Mahalla quest as part of GR1 advancement for years now, and @Eliron put a good deal of work into bolstering the mythos of the guild around what K…
  • I haven't watched Arrow myself yet, but it's on the list. I bought the first three seasons on Black Friday, along with The Flash (and Game of Thrones, but that one's easy. She loves Peter Dinklage).


    Still, she banned TV during my ch…
  • Over the past few years, I've been slowly converting my mother, an average 54 year old woman who knows nothing of our ancient ways, into the sacred knowledge of geekdom. At first it was easy. "Hey, you think Robert Downey, Jr. is hot, let's watch Ir…
  • Found out today I've been accepted into my local college's RN program. That having been my goal through the ups and down of the past few years, it's super exciting to get the letter saying "hey, you're in."

    It's a 2 year wait list, of cou…
  • Stuff happened, and I'm upset. The disaffectedness is making it hard to give a damn about Lusternia right now. I've been able to overcome similar before, and keep playing, but I don't feel up to it this time. So, I'm gonna take a break for a while, …
  • Psh. The Shee-Slaugh want to be High-Tory-esque. Given Stratas is currently the most active member, and his backstory is "repeatedly snuck off to Delport for wild partying until his dads threw him in the portal to straighten him out, and now doesn't…

    spreading across the ground and his single eye glowing a deep red.

    Unless you mean THE Crow?
  • The Glom Nightshades are simply repressed ravers. There's a reason @Astraea calls herself Partyshade now. You'd be joining a long and (not really that) esteemed tr…
